Ashton Hewitt is facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines after suffering a knee ligament injury in Dragons' game against Northampton Saints earlier this monthDragons wing Ashton Hewitt wants social media companies to be proactive rather than reactive in the fight against online abuse. Numerous sports and teams will boycott social media this weekend in an attempt to tackle abuse and discrimination. Hewitt, 26, believes social media companies must do more. They have been since been joined by numerous sporting organisations including Wales' rugby regions, the Welsh Rugby Union, the Welsh Rugby Players' Association and the Football Association of Wales. Nevertheless, he fears the boycott will not be enough to have a serious impact on the approach of social media companies.
